Next door Of Houston Service Center is PPF wrap shop and Tesla service center. That is where I got mine done, then drove back home. Pretty good job they did!
Won't Lucid deliver it to you in DFW?
They will. That's not the problem. I just wouldnt mind picking it up at the service center to get the whole "experience" and also get a nice break-in drive. But it's deciding if it's worth it or just have them deliver to my house and get it wrapped to make sure it's protected. Also I can probably take delivery quicker if I pick it up
How long did it take them to wrap?
Mine took (3) days, but XPEL had to scan the car first to make a pattern. Should be faster now.
You can have that experience at service center or at home, or you can do both of you don’t mind go there to get preliminary orientation like I did before wire.
I did the whole 9 yards, PPF, ceramic coating, all windows tint and canopy coating tint. they were busy with cars ahead of me, about 7 days.
Impossible to tell if wrapped cars are moving out and being replaced with new wrapped cars, or if those same cars have been sitting there a while. Those who complain about no car carriers need to remember there is lots of time in the day when the drone is not flying overhead. The video of the parking lot is good for seeing the number of cars at a moment in time, but for movement of cars over a period of time it means next to nothing.
Looking at how many cars are wrapped and "ready to be delivered" in that lot, I wouldn't be surprised if that ends up being true. At least for a while. They could be seeing bottlenecks both with transport to the Service Centers, and then with too many cars sitting in Service Centers waiting on delivery.
Sounds good to me.. you got a ballpark idea of what to expect, confirmation of ultra-quick VIN to Delivery time (something we've seen on the forum but haven't confirmed is a new norm) and worst-case scenario you'll get a direct update at the end of August.
A quick VIN to delivery is the new norm only because of cancellations, not because the system has all of a sudden become more efficient.
Or .. they have stopped issuing VINs at stamping/production/etc and straight up assigning cars when AZ PDI is done & ready for delivery. And I think the delivery times are given based on transport schedules.
Is that just a forum theory or confirmed? I've seen more quick deliveries than I have cancellation reassignments.
Speculation/forum theory.
Well, now it's scheduled for tomorrow morning (August 5). Service center called and said they were delayed again, if I wanted it today the Air would arrive at my house at 11:00 pm! They offered tomorrow morning, and I said that's fine.
Adding to this. Supposedly most of the haulers come and load up at night
We need night flyovers! Get on it, Bear's!
